Last season's uber-boring 'Bachelor', Andy Baldwin, is being deployed to Iraq in January. Baldwin's rep confirmed that the Naval doctor has up to a 12-month assignment in the Gulf.

In the meantime Baldwin has broken up with TV love Tessa Horst (no surprise). A Baldwin pal says that while long-distance love was already proving difficult (he’s in Hawaii, she’s in San Francisco), the news he was going abroad “was a factor.”

Well I guess that's good news for all the single enlisted girls overseas, as long as none of them requires an actual conversation!
